There is no January Mediterranean cruise but this is the Disney site. Is it a typo?

Put your cursor over the bolded Disney Cruise Lines name in the post. See the little box that pops up? All is says is Disney Cruise Lines and "Community."

Now go up to the search box at the top of the page and type in Disney. See the list of real Disney sites? See the blue check mark next to their names? The blue check means that Facebook has verified that the page belongs to the brand or company that's named in it. That's how you tell when a page is official. The real DCL page has the blue check, has a whole lot more activity, and nearly a couple million likes.

Because it generates traffic, which in turn can lead to clickthroughs, which in turn can lead to profit.
